Story Behind The Song
I wrote a letter to the girl I was dating telling her how much I loved her and debated for a long time whether I should give her the letter because it would make me significantly more vulnerable. I ended up giving it to her and it was the worst decision I could have made. It was a lesson that honesty is not always the best policy.

Lyrics
I just wrote you this letter
To tell you I was at home
I just wrote you this letter
Cause I was feeling alone
Put my heart in this letter
But I think it might be wrong
Not a spot in this letter
Is meant to make you feel low
I wanna be, wanna feel, wanna live, wanna steal
Wanna make you see
Wanna bathe in your fire
Say yes to me desire
And I wanna be free
I?m strong I know
Just give me the go
I?m gonna make you see
Help me find the real me
I just wrote you this letter
But I didn?t know what to say
I just wrote you this letter
About the things I said today
I wanna give you this letter
But I don?t think I can
I wanna give you this letter
But it is still in my hand
I wanna be, wanna feel, wanna live, wanna steal
Wanna make you see
Wanna bathe in your fire
Say yes to my desire
And I wanna be free
I?m strong I know
Just give me the go
I?m gonna let things be
Help me find the real me
Not a soul under heaven
Can understand what I see
I wanna give you my letter
Have you look inside the real me
I wanna be, wanna feel, wanna live, wanna steal
Wanna make you see
Wanna bathe in your fire
Say yes to my desire
And I wanna be free
I?m strong I know
Just give me the go
I?m gonna let things be
Help me find the real me
Help me find the real me
Help me find the real me
